No, I'm not sewing day and night....

Just lazy about posting. Here's some of the stuff I've made in the last month.

House Latest!

Back to posting- now that I have photoshop on my laptop!!!!! Here's the latest house progress.

OMG they finished the house!

Just kidding...but thanks to my husband's love of photoshop, we can start to pick out exterior paint colors. What do you think?

New Birdie Sling- Now 25% smaller!

I'm really enjoying the original Birdie Sling I made a few weeks ago. But it's REALLY big- so I copied the original pattern at 75% and made this smaller version. I also photographed the steps for anyone interested here.

Now off to make the next project- a shower curtain for the new house made from this Amy Butler Lotus fabric.

Silk Flower hair clip

I love local Austinite Amy Barber's flower hair clips, so I tried my hand at one myself. I used some various silk flowers, disassembled them, then sewed them back together with beaded detail. Then, I added some feathers and hot-gluged the whole thing to a hair clip- voila!

Bubble Pouch

My husband thinks this is totally useless- but agreed it's cute! For make-up, or a phone? This is from Keyka Lou- the site is great because the patterns are download- able, just pay and print! She also has great sewing tips and tutorials on her blog. I used Alexander Henry fabric on the exterior.

House Renovation continues.....

It's coming along...only 6 more months :-(

Hourglass Pillow!

I had so much Lotus fabric left over from the Birdie Sling, that I was able to make this great Hourglass pillow from Amy Butler's free downloads. It looks pretty sitting on top of a floor pillow I made a while back using some Ikea fabric.

Amy Butler Birdie Sling

Jebus! I can't stop sewing! I finished the Birdie Sling from Amy Butler- using some of her Lotus fabric. I love it! It's really big though- I think I will resize it down to 70% and make another.

Elvis Costello tribute pillow

I made this pillow by tracing the cover art from "My Aim is True." Inspired by Sumblime Stiching
